I have that particular bolt knob on my Howa mini bolt handle. It sure makes it easier to grasp the bolt when cycling ammo. Don't remember how much I paid for it or even where I got it. It had a problem when I got it though. When I went to remove the screws from it before attaching it to the bolt handle, the top screw was stuck in it. I did eventually get the screw out but its threads were stripped as were the threads in the knob body. What I did was re-tap the hole with a 6-40 tap & use a new screw from my spare screw kit. I also added some blue loctite to all 3 screws. Only needed one of the rubber o-rings.

I haven't had any trouble so far with the screws stripping and I also only use 1 rubber ring. That knob makes it so much easier to open the bolt and it helps my hand to clear my scope.

I've got one of them or one like it on mine...
Wouldn't leave home now without it.
I also found on for my ruger predator handle, but this time I think it was a remove/replace kind of thing.
Sure like a handle I get hold of!

I just ordered one, might as well give it a shot. I've spent so much money on my Howa mini's what's another 20 bucks.

Sometimes just the rubber o-ring will keep it tight, sometimes you can use some blue locktite or epoxy (epoxy as a fill material), just keep the epoxy off of the edges and screws lol.
I did one epoxy a while back but forgot which rifle it was, my latest I just did the o-ring.
